Low and midlatitude ionospheric plasma density irregularities and their effects on geomagnetic field

T Yokoyama, C Stolle - Space Science Reviews, 2017 - Springer
Earth's magnetic field results from various internal and external sources. The electric
currents in the ionosphere are major external sources of the magnetic field in the daytime.
High-resolution magnetometers onboard low-Earth-orbit satellites such as CHAMP and
Swarm can detect small-scale currents in the nighttime ionosphere, where plasma density
gradients often become unstable and form irregular density structures. The magnetic field
variations caused by the ionospheric irregularities are comparable to that of the lithospheric …
